THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE 
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK 


<eegi THOSE organizations entirely independent of government 

support, patronage or alliance, the Chamber of Commerce of 
24) the State of New York is the oldest commercial organization 
ey) in the world. Founded on April 5th, 1768 in New York by a 
GA} small group of merchants interested in the trade and com- 
merce of the City, chartered by King George III of England 
as the “Chamber of Commerce in the City of New York in America,” and 
after the Revolutionary War incorporated under the laws of the State as 
the “Chamber of Commerce of the State of New York,’ the Chamber has 
functioned continuously for one hundred and fifty-six years. 





It was written into the records of that first meeting that the purpose of 
the organization was Promoting and encouraging commerce, supporting 
industry, adjusting disputes relative to trade and navigation, and procuring 
such laws and regulations as may be found necessary for the benefit of trade 
in general.’ 


To this original statement of purpose the Chamber has devoted itself 
along the broadest and most comprehensive lines. In 1851 a Committee 
report sounded a note of policy to which the Chamber has strictly adhered 
in the attempt to keep the avowed purpose always in view. The report 
says: If we speak upon every topic we shall soon cease to be heeded upon 
any. Ihe Chamber cannot step out of its true path without lessening its 
dignity, impairing its usefulness and detracting from the weight of its 
judgment. ' 


To maintain this policy, and in line with the original intention of the 
organization, the Chamber has been organized on what is known as the 
Town Meeting Plan. This means that resolutions passed or public actions

Page Seven 






































recommended by the Chamber have been passed upon at a meeting at which 
all of its members have had an opportunity for discussion and voting. The 
Town Meeting Plan results in conservative action and effective utterance, 
but is handicapped in that no action can be taken quickly and that relatively 
few matters may be considered. In this plan of organization, as in the 
limitation of its membership (2,000) this Chamber is unique. 





The work of the Chamber as conducted to-day by its Committees, 
formed of business men whose vocations especially qualify them to deal 
with the subjects under consideration, covers a large field and is indicated 
by the names of the various standing committees: Committees on Finance 
and Currency, Foreign Commerce and the Revenue Laws, Internal Trade 
and Improvements, Harbor and Shipping, Insurance, Taxation, Arbitration, 
Commercial Education, Public Service in the Metropolitan District. 








The work of the Committee on Arbitration, which had its beginning on 
May 3rd, 1768, with the appointment of a Committee for “adjusting any 
differences between parties agreeing to leave such differences to this Cham- 
ber,’ has grown to such proportions that it is known all over the world. 
The Arbitration system to-day is not limited to members of the Chamber 
nor confined to firms resident in the City of New York. As a matter of 
fact a number of cases have been held in which one of the parties has been a 
resident of a foreign country and in several cases a foreign government has 
officially been represented as one of the parties to a dispute. The Chamber 
has received many expressions of thanks and appreciation from the losers 
as well as from the winners in arbitration cases. While a large and increasing 
number of formal arbitration cases are held, the vast majority of cases 
coming before the Chamber are settled before the formal arbitration is called. 


















































The Chamber also maintains a system of commercial examinations and 
grants credentials of proficiency in commercial education, modeled after 
the plan long in operation with the London Chamber of Commerce and a 
few of the leading European Commercial organizations. The purpose of 
the examination is to test the degree of accuracy and thoroughness with 
which the candidates have prepared themselves for a business career. Those 
who successfully pass receive credentials which are of assistance in procuring 
employment and advancement with commercial and financial houses in 
New York City.

The collection of portraits belonging to the Chamber covers the entire 
period of its history. In recognition of the interest which he had always 
shown in its affairs, the Chamber had painted in 1772, a portrait of Lieu- 
tenant-Governor Cadwallader Colden, then Acting Governor of the Colony 
of New York, and through whose office the original Charter was received. 
This was the first in a collection which contains the portraits not only of the 
officers of the Chamber, and officials of the government but also of men who 
have helped to build up the commercial and industrial history of this City 
through one hundred and fifty-six years. The majority of these men were 
members of the Chamber and active in its work. The collection has grown 
to such proportions that it has become necessary to limit the portraits hung 
in the Great Hall to those of officers of the Chamber, and to distinguished 
officials, the others being placed in the various committee rooms, offices 
and halls on the third floor, and in the luncheon room on the fourth floor.

Abiel Abbot Low, a member of the Chamber, provided at his death 
for a portrait fund, to be under the control of the Executive Committee, 
the interest of which is used for the purchase of new portraits and for the 
preservation and care of the Chamber's collection.
